Join Anu Lakhan at Scribbles and Quills Limited for a 3-hour Poetry Editing Workshop. Learn the tools and tricks of the trade from this veteran writer.
Spend an intimate and engaging 3-hour session exploring the art of editing poetry with writer and poet Anu Lakhan. Whether you’re polishing finished pieces or trying to understand how to strengthen your voice on the page, this workshop is designed to help poets refine their work with clarity, intention, and confidence.
Participants will explore techniques for tightening language, improving rhythm and flow, sharpening imagery, and deepening emotional impact while learning practical approaches to revising poems without losing their original heart. Through guided discussion, editing exercises, and feedback opportunities, attendees will leave with tools they can continue using long after the workshop ends.
Perfect for emerging poets, experienced writers, and anyone looking to deepen their relationship with poetry and the editing process. Bring along a few poems or works-in-progress to workshop during the session.
Anu Lakhan is a writer and editorial triage consultant. She writes about books and food. She facilitated a writing course at UWI, St Augustine for eight years. Her books include Letters to K (Argotiers Press, 2018) and The Proper Care of Knives (Argotiers Press, 2025).
